A timely opportunity to capture Petrie Island's beauty and keep this important place in the public's eye, the
artists met with their "en-plein-air" gear. They connected and shared stories, chose a spot to capture
their paintings, and worked until the heat won over their gear, concentration, their snacks and water bottles.
